And today, in perfect "sell the news" style, price is going down...

after all this time i assure you that there really isn't any reason for little fluctuations like this.
a tiny dip which is smaller than $50-$100 is not really because "sell the news", it is the normal way market works. and there are a lot of things going on at the moment which makes this "big Japanese news" get lost among them.

currently at $2250 by the way at bitstamp.


i agree the fluctation is very little and it's impossible to say exactly why. But you know Btc today could going up, sideway or down, it went down.
Now Bitstamp is 2216$, yesterday was over 2300$.

We will see in the next days what happening. If Bitcoin will not crash, I think Ethereum will continue to grow. If Bitcoin crash, everybody go down.

This could potentially be great news, a real breakthrough into mainstream adoption in Japan at least. I'm not going to get my hopes up but fingers crossed that this brings us a boost in the price.

I'm seeing great dedication from all the Japanese industries towards Bitcoin. They're trying to adopt the technology in an exceptional manner. They are the tech giant and it's a great news for all of us. If every country starts adopting like Japan then everyone will understand the true power of Bitcoins in the near future.


unfortunately in the near future we will be still stalling with the scaling and HF debate.
Eth and Litecoin could take the place of Bitcoin if its evolution will continue to be extremely slowly (for today's standards)

I also haven't heard any new about it, if it is huge supposed to be a lot of people talking about it, but if it is really happened it will be great for bitcoin, more people will know bitcoin and it will caused more people to join and the price will go up, the most important now is the bitcoin popularity, if we can add the popularity then bitcoin will have a great future, and I so overwhelmed seeing Japan really take commitment about bitcoin, so many sectors started to implemented bitcoin,soon it will be a heaven for bitcoin users


If you didn't hear about it you are not that updated.
In Twitter, Reddit, in Bitcoin digital newspaper (Bitcoin telegraph etc...), even in regular media (CNBC) they talked about this, maybe not a lot, but all talked at least once about it.
The news is quite huge, but Japanese love moving under the radar if possible. So I didnt expect they emphasizing the news.
The creation of new exchange platforms it is a normal conseguence of Bitcoin legalization as a currency in Japan.

In Japan and Korea they pays Bitcoin 20% higher than us, maybe because the understood better than us, how huge this is.
Anyway Japanese "normal" people are smart investors, smarter than the average American or even European so many Japanese sometimes could even short Bitcoin.
I mean many Japanese investing in Bitcoin doesnt mean Bitcoin always growing.

And today, in perfect "sell the news" style, price is going down...

GMO is a Japanese trading platform for Forex, Equities, Stocks and now Bitcoin, it is insured for hacker attacks and regulated by Japanese Financial Services Agency
If hackers want they will attack it and shutdown for a couple of days, we dont have anything secured in internet nowadays.
Haven`t heard nothing about this project, but will check it, when they come out.

yes but the insurance then pays

I never expected japan to be so dedicated. When i heard them adopting bitcoin as a currency i was like ok fine we will see and little increase in price, but japan became a player it added bitcoin to more than 100k stores , made freakin multiple atm in the country and now it's opening the largest trading platform also. I wish it's neighbour china was also like this.

Japan was wise to jump on the crypto tech train. In the end it is one of few countries which actually invent tech, unlike China which only copies it.  Cheesy

Have it this way, many of the users may missed the early adoption train but that's not the case if you think country-wise.

Japan is the early adopter of bitcoin as a country. While China was banning its usage, Japan took a step forward and actually made it legal. So does Australia. As a result, these countries will benefit most from bitcoin.

Just like people who believed in bitcoin and endured anything for years.

Their interest concerns me however. The East is way more enthusiastic about crypto than the West, every time we get a new nation to invest, we bubble and pop. I loved the rally we.just had, it was timely for me, but I cant help but think the price isn't sustainable, growing this quickly. The chart looked like a goddamed ski slope before the price started pulling back. We have to be more responsible about our growth; I like profits as much as anyone else, but unsustainable growth is well, unsustainable.


oh yes,  but there is nothing we can do about it. Time will settle things. In the long term price will be more stable, not now nor next year

Re: Why Cash is better than Bitcoin.

ATMs and credit cards both have fees (I believe you are joking). It may have zero confirmation time but It's possible to chargeback and get scammed. Lightning Network should give us the ability to make micro-payments and without waiting for confirmations too. Banks control your money, you don't. I see no reason on why fiat is better than bitcoin.

LN is not enough for scaling the world or even just a bit nation/country.
cause when you close the channel your transaction go in a block.
LN reduces transactions interted in blocks only when you open channels you are going to use often.

What are the reasons, why people use Cash or Credit Cards / ATM / Banks?

* Work offline 100%
* No fees.
* Accepted for Food Shopping & Micropayments
* 0 confermations time
* 0 exchange risks
* anyone is able to understanding of the value of payment

that's true
but cash value is very stable, Bitcoin grows a lot. I prefer having savings in Btc cause it grows

This is great news,
the points above are really attractive, especially the zero fees and open to all worldwide.
I visited their site and yes you can select any country worldwide.
It will be interesting to see what their pricing will be like?
Thanks for posting this.
If they are regulated by japanese government than it can be pain in ass for international users to go through their extensive KYC policy just like the way foreign traders lost so much in chinese platforms before due to confusing verification terms they have. I would suggest to not use all this new platforms to trade large amount of bitcoins.

yes, at first better staying just watching what happen

for the past few months all we keep hearing is the bullshit with SEC and the ETF they denied! and that is like a pathetic little news compared to this one in my opinion Smiley
all we need to know is this:

GMO Click Securities Co. Ltd. – the Japanese conglomerate’s online financial trading subsidiary – is the biggest forex broker in the world with by far the highest trading volumes in the industry globally. and now they are going to have bitcoin too.


yep, could be something big

Tell us in three sentences what the advantage of Litecoin over other alts like Ethereum, Maid, DASH, Monero,... etc. is?

I do not see any advantage except the Chinese like Litecoin. Therefore, I do not agree with your statement that Litecoin is a sleeping giant at all Wink

Lightening Network (soon), listed on Coinbase, SegWit and Confidential Transaction (soon)

Dash confidential transaction? LOL (cit. Greg Maxwell)
